Re:An IPv6-only VPS that costs less

I know of several German ISPs (Kabel Deutschland, MNet) that don't even give you a dynamic IPv4 IP anymore, but use Dual-Stack Lite (that is, IPv6, and carrier-grade NAT to access public IPv4 addresses). Oh, and they limit the ports (and thus connections) you can have open at a time, to something like 1000. I wouldn't want to have such a connection.

They started rolling out IPv6 in some regions Q1/Q2 2013 [1]. I for example still can't use IPv6 :/
I'd also like to mention that we do not have a static IP, it just changes less often than it did with DSL.

How do you get an IPv6 address from Kabel Deutschland? I'm in Berlin and it's still IPv4 only.
I'm on Kabel Deutschland and have a static IPv4. Is that a regional thing only?
